I have a dropdown listbox whose SQLDataSource connects to an Oracle database from a SQL Server 2005.  Based on the department selection, the query should display all the employees in the selected department.  However, it only list a null value.  The SQL @parameter is not recognized by Oracle but the equivalent search criteria is:
Select * from department
Where department_name LIKE :department_name.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What for? Why not just use an httprequest to download it directly from the server? If you have to do this, you can always base-64 encode the file and send it as a string in a webservice. I belive that .NET webservices support DIME, which is smaller and has other benefits, but I don't know anything about it.
